Airtac ACQJ32~40 Adjustable Thin-Type Cylinder ACQJ32X30-10S
The AirTAC Airtac ACQJ32~40 Adjustable Thin-Type Cylinder ACQJ32X30-10S is a genuine double-acting COMPACT (JIS) cylinder with an EXTERNAL adjustable stop on the extend stroke — a Ø32mm bore and 30mm full stroke. Turn the stop to fine-tune the end position on the machine without changing parts.

About the Airtac ACQJ32~40 Adjustable Thin-Type Cylinder ACQJ32X30-10S
The AirTAC ACQJ32X30-10S is a double-acting JIS compact cylinder with a 32mm bore and an external extend stop. A threaded rod-end screw with a lock nut lets you shorten the forward stroke by up to 10mm, yielding a usable extend range of 20-30mm. The retract distance remains fixed at the full 30mm. Because the piston area stays constant, output force is identical to a standard ACQ unit of this size.
This model includes a built-in piston magnet (-S) compatible with reed or solid-state switches via its integrated grooves. It features a 16mm piston rod, an M8x1.25 female rod-end thread, and PT1/8 ports. Deceleration relies on fixed elastomer bumpers at both ends rather than adjustable pneumatic cushions.

| Port size | PT1/8 |
| Fluid | Air (filtered by 40µm element) |
|---|---|
| Operating pressure | 0.15 – 1.0 MPa |
| Proof pressure | 1.5 MPa |

| Speed range | 30 – 500 mm/s |
| Rod thread | M8×1.25 (F) / M14×1.5 (B) |
Specifications follow the official AirTAC ACQJ datasheet. The adjustable stop shortens the EXTEND stroke only; the piston area — and therefore the force — is the same as a standard ACQ of this bore. Adjustable window options: 10/20/30/40/50/75/100 mm.
Theoretical Output Force (Ø32mm)
| Pressure | Push force | Pull force |
|---|---|---|
| 0.5 MPa | 402 N | 302 N |
| 0.7 MPa | 563 N | — |
| Max (@1.0 MPa) | 82 kgf | |
Force equals a standard ACQ of the same bore — the adjuster changes stroke length, not piston area. Actual usable force is lower due to friction; size with a safety margin.

Where the Airtac ACQJ32~40 Adjustable Thin-Type Cylinder ACQJ32X30-10S Is Used
Machining Fixture Clamps
Dial in the exact clamping reach on a CNC fixture without machining new spacers, shortening the extend stroke by up to 10mm to accommodate varying raw material thicknesses.
Product Changeover Stops
Rapidly reposition end-of-line mechanical stops on packaging equipment during format size changes, using the external M12x1.25 adjuster thread to set the 20-30mm forward limit.
Assembly Press Positioning
Establish trial end positions for pressing sub-components on an automated line, fine-tuning the forward travel on the fly until the optimal insertion depth is verified.
Is the Airtac ACQJ32~40 Adjustable Thin-Type Cylinder ACQJ32X30-10S the Right Cylinder?
Choose this 32mm bore actuator when you need 402.1N push force at 0.5MPa (562.9N at 0.7MPa) alongside on-machine end-position tuning. If your application never requires stroke adjustments, a fixed-stroke ACQ cylinder provides the same power in a more compact depth. When sizing, note the neighbouring 25mm bore yields 245.4N push, while the 40mm bore provides 628.3N. To order, confirm the 32mm bore, 30mm full stroke, 10mm adjuster window, the -S magnet option, and your required rod thread.
Quick checklist
- ✓ Need on-machine end-position tuning?
- ✓ Full stroke and adjust window (mm)
- ✓ Force at your working pressure
- ✓ Magnet (S) for sensors?
- ✓ Female (blank) or male (B) rod thread
Installation & Maintenance Notes
- check Use clean air filtered to 40µm or finer.
- check Keep within 0.15 – 1.0 MPa operating pressure.
- check Lock the adjuster nut after setting the stop.
- check The stop limits the EXTEND stroke only.
- check Avoid side load on the short piston rod.
- check Installation by qualified personnel per AirTAC docs.
Airtac ACQJ32~40 Adjustable Thin-Type Cylinder ACQJ32X30-10S FAQ
This 32mm bore cylinder delivers 402.1N push and 301.6N pull at 0.5MPa, 562.9N push at 0.7MPa, and a maximum push of 82kgf at 1.0MPa. The full stroke is 30mm, but the external stop allows you to adjust the usable extend range from 20mm to 30mm via the 10mm window.
No, the adjuster changes only the forward stroke length, not the piston area, so force remains identical to a standard ACQ. End-of-travel deceleration is handled by fixed elastomer bumpers at both ends. The retract stroke is unaffected, and the -S magnet works with reed or solid-state switches.
